what did he say about susan rice today? >> reporter: he was asked his thoughts on ambassador rice, currently the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. i'll let you listen to his remarks then we can talk about it. this is the president. >> susan rice is extraordinary. couldn't be prouder of the job she's done. [ applause ] >> reporter: so from the whole cabinet. little awkward hard to tell if the applause were necessarily for susan rice or right before he said that he had also called out secretary napolitano and the veterans affairs department saying it's their birthday. perhaps they were also applauding the birthdays. but i'm told the fact that susan rice is up on the hill should not necessarily be read as an early sign that the white house is giving her sort of a prerun dry run for a nomination. at this is in part because she wanted to go answer questions on the hill to clear her name and that this was part of her desire as well. of course senator kerry also still i'm told a contender for either secretary of state if not another cab

susan rice to be secretary of state. look, i mean, there is no question there is deep seeded animosity between these two camps leading -- going back to 2008 when the president and john mccain were running against each other. but it's escalated to a whole new level now. and, yes, it is true that john mccain and others are going after this saying they want questions. but there's a lot of politics going on on both sides of this. >> if he decides to go ahead and nominate susan rice to be the next secretary of state, dana, what are the chances that she will be confirmed by the united states senate? >> i think it's actually too early to answer that question, honestly. clearly the democrats do have a substantial majority, but not a 60-vote majority needed to break a filibuster. they would need at least a handful of republicans to vote with them to confirm susan rice if she is in fact nominated to be secretary of state. and given the way that this has become so politically polarized led by the president's former opponent john mc

the susan rice appearance was interesting, wolf. i know everyone cringes when it's political, but she's in this fight and having observed her here for four years, this was a very passionate, strong speech to come out to be clear that this was a bad resolution. she hasn't always been present for various reasons on big u.n. moments. the u.s. had the right, listed the first country to explain their vote. the u.s. one of just nine -- of nine countries to vote against this resolution. susan rice calling it unfortunate, counterproductive resolution, you're not going to get anything by pushing a green button here. for susan rice, and washington, the efforts -- the diplomatic efforts to stop this nonstate observer state title from being granted really failed. rice's veto threat kept the palestinians last year from obtaining what they really want, full statehood. wolf. >> that veto threat is in the security council, the u.s. clearly does not have a veto in the general assembly. general assembly resolutions don't have the obvious political im

ari, is it fair to go after susan rice like this? >> i don't think it's a question go after or don't go after, but she did attribute this to the video, she did working off of intelligence say something that was incomplete. and of course as we learned in that famous second debate, the president apparently did declare this specific attack as terrorist the day after the attack took place. so if the president could do it one day after, why was she saying something totally different five days after? >> would it be wise, james, for the president to go ahead and nominate here to be hillary clinton's successor as secretary of state? >> if that's what he wants to do, he should. i mean, she's been a long distinguished career as a diplomat. she's now u.n. ambassador. she's obviously imminently qualified. she was talking off of the talking points. i guess you could criticize the administration to put the u.n. ambassador out on something that really wasn't in her chain of command or line of duty and probably wasn't the most knowledgeable person t
